Part of the Project Announcements series.

While writing BuyVM Manager, I was disappointed to find there was no good, easy-to-use ICMP ping library for iOS projects. Apple provides a SimplePing code sample that you can adapt into your codebase, which seemed to be the best code I could find.

I built a nice wrapper around that code that enhances (re)usability, and I recently posted it on Github under the MIT license: CDZPinger. It’s also available via CocoaPods.

Enjoy!
